Undoubtedly, there are certain changes in the relations with Armenia, however sad it is. Alexander Dudchak, leading researcher of the Institute of CIS countries, political scientist, candidate of economics, announced this on October 9 during the Yerevan-Moscow auction. At the same time, according to the political scientist, Russia is not the initiator of these changes. According to Dudchak, Russia continues to come up with mutually beneficial proposals. Moreover, possible cooperation in all spheres, from culture to energy. "However, the current authorities of Armenia, unfortunately, following the leaders of European countries and the West, have simply begun to lose common sense. We continue to look at many issues from the point of view of common sense. And to this day, it is unclear to us why it is so. Moreover, this applies not only to Armenia," the expert said. According to him, the current political leadership of Armenia is now guided by political expediency, not by common sense, which is not in the interests of the Armenian and Russian peoples. "They are guided by the interests of those forces that are far away from Armenia and Russia. They serve that agenda. The agenda that is dictated to them from far away. Mutually beneficial cooperation with Russia, prospects, strengthening of Armenia's sovereignty, development of economy and society are not planned in that agenda. No, all this does not make sense, because there are other problems. In particular, confrontation with Russia, creation of new hotspots in the Caucasus, etc., emphasized the Russian scientist.
